    Saturday Check in
    Calories: down
    Water: over
    Exercise: went to the outlet mall and did lots of shopping and trying on clothes!

    Y'all I actually went into stores that I have NEVER been in and I tried on tops that fit me!! It has to be cut big and be blousy but I can actually fit into an XL! B) I'm right between plus size and regular sizes, which made shopping much more challenging and fun. Very motivating!!

    I don't know if you need my steps for the month but here they are:
    5/1-10,375
    5/2-6962
    5/3-10,423
    5/4-10,030

    Hey @embersdream - Thanks! I get in 3-5 long (45+ min) outdoor walks a week. Treadmill is better than nothing on bad weather days, but outdoor walks feel extra great!

    Sunday check in
    Calories: slightly over, carbs way over
    Water: 128 oz.
    Steps: 27,097
    Exercise: 5k walk/run, gardening

    NSV: I just had my blood work done. Big drop in my cholesterol. My A1C came down another point and my lymphocytes (leukemia) barely progressed.

    With the exception of a few ridiculous weeks over Easter I've been eating low carb and walking 30-75 min most days. The diabetic nurse was impressed that I was able to keep my blood sugar under control with diet and exercise and not medication

    I know a few people that have benefited from low carb, putting type 2 diabetes into remission. So glad to hear you are doing well

    Hey team.
    Insights anyone?
    I’m feeling pretty emotional.
    I got on the scale this morning ( and yes I am menstruating) and the scale says I’m the heaviest I’ve been in my entire life. I don’t understand how I’ve put on THAT MUCH. And increSe of ten pounds in less than a week.
    I’m devastated.
    Haven’t been feeling well .
    I’m doing weights/cardio 3 times a week. Not dieting but staying within a normal range of calories of about 14-1600 a day .
    I did do extreme dieting for a long time and my body was used to operating at low cals but I literally can’t do that anymore.
    I feel on the verge of panic.
    I’m tired of all the diets and bandwagons that people say is the best things. I’ve tried them all . Literally. I have had thyroid checked in the past too and seems normal ( despite family history)

    So, I’ve noticed that when I work out, I weigh more the very next day and it’s usually from water. I used to run and during training, I’d weigh way more than I did before I started, probably due to water weight but that kind of strenuous activity makes you very hungry and I know I made bad choices. It’s easy to do when all you hear about is “carb loading”.

    You are also going to weigh more during this phase in your cycle. And even if you are weighing more, there are other things that let you know how you are doing. Do you feel stronger? Do your clothes fit differently?

    Just this on Friday, I weighed 3 pounds more than I do today. Why? No idea. Was I dehydrated and therefore retaining water? Did I have a lot of carbs the day before? Do I need to recalibrate my scale? Did I weigh in very first thing in the morning? I have no idea.

    Just some things to consider. I was also panicking on Friday. Hugs!
